About Journal
The Journal of Risk and
Uncertainty welcomes original manuscripts, both theoretical and
empirical, dealing with the analysis of risk-bearing behavior and decision
making under uncertainty. The topics covered in the journal include, but are
not limited to, decision theory and the economics of uncertainty, psychological
models of choice under uncertainty, risk and public policy, experimental
investigations of behavior under uncertainty, and empirical studies of real
world risk-taking behavior. Manuscripts generally not considered for
publication in the JRU include note-length submissions, papers dealing
explicitly with finance, and papers in which risk and uncertainty are secondary
concerns in the paper.
